I guess If i could literally buy any C4 it would have to be this










The one-off 898 BHP 772.2 Ft/lbs 0-60 in 3.9 secondsruns the 1/4 mile at 10.6 seconds with a top speed of 254.76 mph"1988 Twin Turbo Callaway Sledgehammer"

For those in search of a Callaway Corvette of their own, you might be interested in checking out
the Callaway Marketplace

or this thread: Callaway Corvettes For Sale Thread


I hope this helps

The first Corvette I looked at buying was a very low mileage 1995 Pace Car. I thought it was real cool. When the owner told me how much he wanted for it I almost fell over! Than I found out there were only 527 of them made. That's the C4 I would like to have if I had my choice.

That would be great, and the next 1/4 million dollars plus I have sitting around I would make an offer to the guy who bought it at Barrett Jackson.

I think there is more than one....this one is from Colorado.



Here's the Sledgehammer.

There is not more than one - that car is not a Callaway Corvette. Rather, it is a Corvette with a Callaway AeroBody added by a previous owner.


Two stock body Callaway GS's are out there - Awesome cars

This is a tough thread....

Can I pick the GS-80?

OK, probably not.....

If not, then my list would be as follows:

TIE: (both w/sawblades, more iconic than the ZR1 wheels)

Assuming nothing ever breaks: Torch Red 405hp ZR1 coupe

In the real world: Torch Red 1996 LT4 Coupe

Rest of the list:

2.) 1996 CE LT4 Convertible with TT2s (someone's actual car here)
3.) 1996 GS
4.) 1993 Quasar Blue LT1 6-speed

I could say the turbo, but my heart ain't in it. They're insane cars, but I like my Corvettes naturally aspirated.

and one of them lives in Rhode Island and there was a write up on the car about a year ago in one of the corvette mags... They were saying that his Callaway GS was the only one of its kind. I saw it about a year ago at local Corvette car show in Shrewsbury MA and man that thing is immaculate.
